The
laughing lunatic. The Clown Prince of Crime. Batman’s greatest
enemy. That’s how The Joker sees himself. With his white skin,
green hair and constant grin, this unhinged leader of Gotham’s
colorful criminal underworld has made it his life’s goal to cure
the city of its all-so-serious gloom. He might break the law, but he
really just wants to make people smile…and to rule the city…and
to get Batman to finally admit that he is his greatest enemy. Is that
too much for a Super-Villain to ask for?

Taking
a break from terrorizing Gotham City, The Joker begrudgingly sits
down for an interview to promote the upcoming adventure comedy The
LEGO Batman Movie from Warner Animation Group.

Question:
So, you’re one of Batman’s most hated enemies?

The
Joker: I’m sorry? ‘One of’?

Q:
Yes. You’re one of the many, many Super-Villains Batman fights in
Gotham City. Are we missing something here?

The
Joker: Yes! Look, Batman may ‘fight around’ with a bunch
of Gotham’s B-through-Z list villains, but what we have is special!
I’m not just ‘some bad guy.’ I’m his greatest enemy!

Q:
So Batman refers to you as such? He calls you his ‘greatest enemy’?

The
Joker: Well, I mean… not out loud. Or to my face. Or
whenever I ask him to define our relationship by uttering those
specific words directly to me. But he feels it deep down in his
heart. And that’s what matters most.

Q:
You’ve been trying to take over Gotham City for decades now. Why
keep at it for all these years?

The
Joker: That’s like asking, ‘Why does a clown make people
laugh?’ – which I’m also uniquely qualified to answer since I’m
both a clown and a respected humorist. But the truth is, I keep
trying to take over Gotham because it’s what I love. And if it
happens to get Batman’s attention once in a while and we spend a
little more time together and he realizes how important I am in his
life, then that’s all just an added plus.

Q:
And what about your criminal associates? Do you have special
connections with any of them?

The
Joker: Harley Quinn is my best girl-buddy. And Riddler comes
in handy whenever I’m doing the Sunday crossword. Bane’s
pretty good at opening a pickle jar for me.

Q:
We’ve heard you can be pretty mean to them sometimes.

The
Joker: You mean like when I ditched them all, or called them
‘losers,’ or blamed them for every criminal shortcoming I’ve
ever had? It’s called motivational speaking. They love that!

Q:
Let’s go out on a positive note. Can you tell us a joke?

The
Joker: Sure. What’s the difference between a piano and a
fish? You can tune a piano but you can’t tuna fish! … What’s
wrong? You’re not laughing…

Q:
Sorry, we were supposed to? Is that the end of the joke?

The
Joker: This interview is over!

Opening
across the Philippines on Thursday, Feb. 9, The LEGO Batman
Movie is distributed in the Philippines by Warner Bros. Pictures, a
Warner Bros. Entertainment Company.
